Dear list members, I woud like to thank you all for the many answers I received to my survey on the cost of the local phone calls in your countries. The problem I have is that I don't have collected enough answers yet to do an analysis of the world market, not even a superficial one :)
That is why I would like to request again, to all of you that do not belong to the countries listed, to please answer the enclosed form. These are the countries I *already* have info on: Australia Canada China Ecuador Ireland Isreael South Africa USA Thank you!!!. Original message follows: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am a technology consultant in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and I need to compile a report about the cost of local phone calls in several countries around the world, to be used by the government in controlling the telecommunications monopoly we have here. I am not charging for the report, I want it to be available for my country and the Internet community. I have been unable to find updated information about the subject (ITUs report is two years old and the market has changed too much), and most data available has to do with the cost of international calls. Any suggestion of authoritative sources is welcome. What I need to ask of you is to take a minute to fill in the following survey and mail it to me, and if you like forward it to other people in other countries that would be willing to answer it. Please mail it to my private e-mail address [email protected], NOT to the list. I will create a table with the results and make them available to list members and the Internet community in about two weeks. Your help is appreciated. Thank you! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- e-mail: Country: City: Carrier: Monthly subscription for telephone service (in local currency and/or dollar equivalence): What does the subscription include?
